Dozens of former Syracuse lacrosse players return for ceremony, Carrier Dome match.
Dozens of former Syracuse lacrosse players came from across the country back to the Carrier Dome on Saturday as part of the 2017 Orange Alumni Classic.
The Orange team consisted of current women's lacrosse coach Gary Gait to 2017 graduate Sergio Salcido, while the White team had former SU Goalie Evan Molloy and attacker Brad Short, who graduated in 1982. Rosters for the two squads totaled 74 players.
The format of the game had recent graduates competing against each other for two quarters, followed by Syracuse legends.
The previously announced departure of SU's chancellor was prime material for our annual April Fools' tradition.
When Chancellor Nancy Cantor announced she’d be stepping down in 2014, many saw it as the end of an era. We saw it as an opportunity to Photoshop her face onto a bus wrap.
The NewsHouse created a fake news story for April 1 visitors about three proposed Cantor tributes — a “Nancy Rising” statue featuring Shaquille O'Neal, a “Connective Cantorridor” rebranding and a huge, smiling brick face mosaic in the Quad. Our completely non-scientific poll had the statue winning by a landslide.
